Sequence Info : Full Length of Mature Protein
Tag Info : Tag-Free
Theoretical MW : 15.3 kDa
Storage Buffer : Lyophilized from a 0.2 m filtered PBS, pH 7.4
Endotoxin Level : Less than 1.0 EU/µg as determined by LAL method.-
Biological Activity : The biological activity was measured by its ability to enhance neurite outgrowth of E16E18 rat embryonic cortical neurons, when neurons were plated on 96 well culture plates that had been precoated with 100 µl/well of a solution of 510 µg/ml rHuPTN.
Storage : Short term: -20°C; Long term: -80°C. Minimize freeze and thaw cycles.
Research Area : Immunology
Restriction : For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures, drug use, or for administration to humans or animals.
Relevance : Secreted growth factor that induces neurite outgrowth and which is mitogenic for fibroblasts, epithelial, and endothelial cells. Binds anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) which induces MAPK pathway activation, an important step in the anti-apoptotic signaling of PTN and regulation of cell proliferation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11278720, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1768439}.
